thanks for the opinions guys but i have decided to stick with the 2 link for now. I live in canada so everything is 3 times as much money and shipping is ridiculous. If i decide i dont like the 2 link i will build a 4 link for it.

Iv attached a couple pictures. Hopefully they work

i test fitted it this after noon and am having clearence issues between the bag and the frame. my question is how much clearance from the bag to frame do i need? the bag is an airbagit denomintor 2600.

thanks!

well guys did some more test fitting on the front this weekend. I ended up cutting the top of the top bracket. i measures 3/8" on the one side and cut it as you can see in the pictures. the low side of the top bracket faces the tire (away from the frame) so now i have about1/2" from the airbag to frame.
do you think i should bolt the upper bracket to the factory spring bucket or will it be ok without bolting it?
Any and all input is appreciated!

i should also tell you guys i picked up 2 haldex 90054007 height control valves for the front. i will most likely run only one in the rear. still trying to find a dump valve so i can air it out by flipping a switch!

Alright guys so i know this isnt the typical build thread on here and yes it is slow as this is my daily driver but i would really appreciate the input. this is my first time working with bags (besides helper bags) and would like all your input!

i looks like you have a pretty good idea goin for ya! im diggin the bag mounts you made for the front. there are several places to get solenoid valves, 1 place ive used is suicide doors.com, my truck has GC Extreme valves on it but there are many opinions are which ones are the best. theres a big selection of brands out there.

the main rule of thumb is i would say in your case is just make sure they arent going to rub anything. itll probably be rough riding in the back when it doesnt have a load on it, if you put the bags on top of the axle. if you arent trying to lay on the ground then there isnt much to worry about besides your usual plumbing and building your 2-link, if thats still what you are going to use.
